WoW! What a great story on how all of this came to be. Loved it and learned a lot about how Docker and Microsoft worked together to get this accomplished.

For the last couple of years Docker and containers have been one of the hottest topics in dev circles, and in enterprises, around the world. The release of Windows Server 2016 last fall added a lot to the conversation by opening containers to Windows developers. How did the world of Windows and Docker come together? It started during the gorgeous Puget Sound summer of 2014 as the Windows Base team embarked on a new project that would ultimately become Windows Server Containers. This is the story behind the code, and a glimpse into what it was like to build one of the top new features in Windows Server 2016.
